Ice Pigging™
The concept was born in a factory that needed technology to decontaminate pipes of all diameters and materials and with multiple bends.
Adopted as a step change technology by water supply and sewage companies Ice Pigging™ is now used across a wide range of industries including advanced engineering applications such as defence, district heating and pharmaceutical. Commercial operations started in 2010 in the UK, expanding overseas to Asia, North America, Europe and Australia.
Since its creation, Ice Pigging™ has been the subject of much attention, including two patents and a string of innovation awards and has been used to clean hundreds of thousands of metres of pipe.
The dedicated team of Ice Pigging™ experts, engineers and operations teams are in Bristol, UK. Under licence, SUEZ Ice Pigging™ teams serve other markets around the world.
